Mrs. Afton heard a knock on the door.

When she went to go open it, she faced an older Michael, around the same height as her now. He hugged her and went inside to greet his siblings. Then, William appeared from behind him.

She held back tears as she ran and hugged him as hard as she could, with him returning the favor. "Why'd you surprise me like that? And why'd you come back so early?"

Henry hammered down the For Sale sign in front of the pizzeria.

Michael looked through the front windows wistfully as moving companies began hauling out all of the furniture.

And William sat back in one of the outdoor chairs, smiling at his accomplishment.

He'd decided that the best way to continue his experiment was to move on to another location, so he notified the police of the "disappearing children". They immediately rushed to the pizzeria and questioned all of the staff. After not getting what they wanted, the police condemned the restaurant to avoid any more kidnappings.

So after the closing, William and his son decided to move back to the UK for a while until business plans for the second location can be finalized. Henry stayed with his wife and Charlotte.

William woke up in the middle of the night and went out for a cold soda.

While sitting at the bar, he pulled out a ruffled piece of paper. It was his design for Elizabeth's own animatronic. A simple drawing with few colors. But it sparked an idea in his mind.

If he opened a new location here in the UK, that'd allow him to continue his work and stay off the radar. He'd design new mascots with child capturing capabilities so that he wouldn't have to worry. And he'd do it all with new and improved endoskeletons. His imagination went wild as the possibilities began cropping up in his head, and he began furiously writing them down.

*****

About a full month had passed since Afton and his son returned to their family in the UK.

William had been busying himself with intricate designs for the mascots and their child capturing systems. He hadn't spent nearly as much time with his family as he should have, and it was showing.

His youngest child barely knew his own father's face, Elizabeth did not get to look at all the designs she inspired, and Michael got sent to boarding school for the time being. His wife was treated only as someone to cook food for him while he obsessed over his creations. As a result, his wife began to resent him. She'd throw random ingredients in the food to spite him.

Eventually, she'd had enough.

She approached William one day while he was drawing up a plan for a ballerina with miniature versions of herself to dance around with.

"William," she said slowly, "I'm leaving."

"Make sure to bring back some more bread, honey," said Afton as he continued drawing without looking up.

Mrs. Afton tapped his shoulder, "You don't understand. I'm leaving for good."

He whipped around in his chair, "You're...leaving me? What'd I do?"

"It's what you didn't do, William," she said. "You sit here, hiding behind walls away from your own children. And me. You're obviously not wanting to take care of this marriage, so I won't either." And with that, she turned and walked out the door.

"Eleanor!" Afton called out. "Come back!" He ran out of the door only to see their convertible driving away.

"Dad?" Tristen said. "Where's Mom going?"

William turned towards his son with regret. "She's gone, Tristen," he said quietly. He sunk down in the doorway.

"She's gone."

After 5 months of planning and business work, it was finally ready to commence.

The new location project, under Fazbear Entertainment.

Circus Baby's Pizza World

A location like this in the UK is the perfect business. Every mascot was two-toned with characteristics resembling that of fun children's commercials. A Funtime Foxy, Funtime Freddy with a hand-puppet named Bon-Bon, and two humans. One human being one that was younger looking, named Circus Baby. And the ballerina named Ballora.

These four, er five would become the new face of Fazbear Entertainment. They were much more high-tech, being one-hundred percent metal, with a plethora of new entertainment capabilities.

But Afton had a more sinister idea in mind.

*****

Henry phoned William one night.

"Hey Willy!" Henry said. "So, it looks like development on the next Freddy's location is gonna be halted for a bit. The security systems in the new endoskeletons and that one extra mascot are gonna take much longer to develop than we anticipated."

Afton pondered the situation for a moment. "How long do you think it's going to take?"

"About a year and a half, because we have to design it, test it, then get it all patented. After that, then it's just building construction but that won't take too long at all," explained Henry.

"Well," William spoke, "I can hold up here. Opening up the Pizza World shouldn't take anywhere near as long. It's just constructing the building. We should be done in about 5 months."

Henry exclaimed, "That's great! I'll be over there to check on you guys after the opening. See ya brother!" Henry hung up.

"Well he sounds like he has everything under control!" said Henry to his wife after lying in the bed with her.

Mrs. Emily was a bit skeptical, "Do you think that this Afton guy is really the right business partner? He just lost his wife. He may not be able to help you out as much as you think."

Henry thought for a moment before answering, "I guess we'll just have to see!", as he snuggled up closer to her.

The twisted prototype melted in the furnace.

William smiled, "That thing was horrifying. But I used all of the soul metal in that thing. I had to get rid of it."

He hung the prototype's mask up on the wall. And chuckled to himself.

It was time to unveil his accomplishments to the world.
